The full picture

AC Milan's loss to Ferencvaros has significantly worsened the mood around the team, following a pattern of midweek letdowns. The win against Inter at the weekend has been diminished in importance. Milan seem to be forced to recover with a strong performance after regular disappointments in midweek.

Billy Costacurta expressed his anger about the result, criticizing Milan's performance as 'timid' and one of the worst halves in the last four or five years. He questioned how the team could afford to step onto the pitch with that attitude, especially in a European match.

Costacurta noted that Milan's attitude was 'crazy' and that they were going 'from one extreme to another', referencing the team's derby win followed by a poor performance. He also mentioned that Rabiot did not play well, highlighting the inconsistency in the team's performances.

How we label and update stories

Source context

After the defeat to Ferencvaros, the mood around AC Milan has worsened significantly, as you’d expect it to. The win against Inter at the weekend has already been diminished in importance. It still means a lot, but the significance of it has been weighed down by yet another midweek defeat against – with respect – a lesser side. Bournemouth, Bologna and now Ferencvaros, it feels like Milan are forced to recover with a strong performance after regular letdowns in midweek. Frustratingly, or maybe not depending on your viewpoint, they normally do the hard work, too.
